Athlon 64 with DDR333?

I'm getting ready to build an Athon 64 box. I have 512MB of DDR333 sitting around and i was wondering how much of a performance decrease will i see from running an A64 with DDR333 vs the normal DDR400?

Well here are the particulars of my situation...

My system is a dell dimension 4550. It has only enough space for two hard drives. I need more space and already have 2 drives. I also planned on upgrading to a Pentium 4 3.06GHz HT ($220). I checked out the A64 setup and for $290 i can get the A64 2800+, a mobo, and a new case with lots of room for expansion. Looking at the two options makes me think about the A64 over just poping a new CPU in my system.

I know the integrated graphics turn off when you put in an AGP card but im just trying to make a little joke about how crappy intel integrated extreme graphics are.

You won't lose musch performance, ~5% maybe. I read an AMDZone.com article, where it showed Athlon 64 performance with DDR333 and DDR266 (don't have the link right now)
